After traveling through time, she took her husband to be a food doctor

Chapter 311: Prepare herbs and vegetables, help the clinic

Lin Mingxuan arrived at Mr. Zhang's house and saw a carriage parked at the door. He knocked on the door, but the person who opened the door was not the familiar Mr. Zhang, but a strange middle-aged man.

"Who are you?" the man asked?

"I am Lin Mingxuan, the current doctor at Jimin Hall." Lin Mingxuan cupped his hands. He looked at the man again and found that his facial features were somewhat similar to those of Mr. Zhang. Lin Mingxuan speculated that he might be Mr. Zhang's son, Zhang Lan.

"You are Doctor Lin, please come in." The man quickly made way.

Lin Mingxuan took a step into the courtyard and continued:

"You must be Mr. Zhang, I have heard of you for a long time."

"No, I am no longer a young master. I often hear my father talk about you two, but when you two go home during the holidays, we have never met."

It looked like it was indeed Zhang Lan. However, he looked to be in his late 40s and had a mustache, so it was inappropriate to call him "Master Zhang".

The two exchanged greetings and walked into the yard together.

Mr. Zhang was basking in the sun in the yard, accompanied by his old housekeeper. When he saw Lin Mingxuan coming, the old man stood up with the help of a cane.

"Mingxuan, you are here, please take a seat."

"Doctor Zhang, don't worry."

Lin Mingxuan walked over, held Mr. Zhang's arm, and asked him to sit down.

"Doctor Zhang, I'm sorry. My wife and I just came back, but we need to go on a long journey immediately. Please come and sit in the clinic." Lin Mingxuan said.

"What happened?" Mr. Zhang immediately clenched his cane, a little nervous.

"Hey," Lin Mingxuan sighed, "Doctor Zhang, the villagers of Xiaoshi Village near Yonghe County may all suffer from Yin syndrome..."

Lin Mingxuan recounted the whole story in detail, and Mr. Zhang listened and gripped his cane even tighter.

"This vicious attack is terrible. Mingxuan, you don't have to worry about Jimin Hall anymore. Go and save people quickly."

"Yes, I have just gone to the county government office. Magistrate Li sent people from the Huimin Medical Bureau to help, and also allocated medicinal materials."

"Does Huimin Medical Bureau have enough medicinal materials? We can't rely on them completely." Mr. Zhang said, and suddenly looked at his son and said hurriedly: "Alan, are you going to negotiate business with the county government this time? Have you reached an agreement?"

"Dad, Huimin Medical Bureau has pushed the price too low. The herbs I buy are all good. We can't do this business."

"Hey!" Mr. Zhang raised his cane slightly and slammed it on the ground. "We can't wait any longer. Let's see how many herbs the medical bureau can provide this time. We can make up for the rest first."

"Dad..." Zhang Lan was a little unhappy.

"Listen to me, saving lives is the most important thing."

"Saving lives is important, but I'm a businessman and I can't do business that loses money. If you want to use my herbs, you have to pay for them. At least let me get my money back."

"You bad boy, isn't it enough for you to earn enough money to spend..."

"Dad, I still have to pay my buddies..."

The two started arguing.

Lin Mingxuan quickly stood between the two of them and said, "Doctor Zhang, don't worry. Huimin Medical Bureau is still taking inventory. We will know what is missing in the afternoon. We don't necessarily need to send out more."

He turned his head and looked at Zhang Lan again: "Brother Zhang, Magistrate Li said that he would allocate money, and the price of the medicinal materials should be negotiable."

The father and son calmed down a little, but Zhang Lan's attitude was still very negative. He wanted to do something beneficial for his hometown, but the official from the Huimin Medical Bureau was too much. He just didn't tell his father that the official not only lowered the price, but also wanted to get some benefits.

The sun was already moving quickly to the west. Lin Mingxuan looked at the sky and cupped his hands:

"Doctor Zhang, time is urgent. There are still some things to deal with in the clinic. I will take my leave now."

"Alan, come with us and see if you can help." Doctor Zhang pushed his son.

"Okay." Zhang Lan looked reluctant.

The two of them went out and reached the corner of the street, where Zhang Lan stopped.

"Mingxuan, please go to the clinic first. I will go to Huimin Medical Bureau and ask you how the medicinal materials are prepared."

Lin Mingxuan was pleasantly surprised and quickly greeted: "Thank you, Brother Zhang."

"Hey, don't thank me yet." Zhang Lan said, shaking his head gently, with a hint of helplessness on his face.

The two said goodbye and Lin Mingxuan returned to the clinic. He saw An Yumo taking Xiaohu and others to the yard to get various vegetables. He became puzzled. The wonton stall was very small. If she bought so much, would she be able to use them all?

"Now that you're back, will Lord Li send someone to go with us? Is there a doctor? Are there any medicinal herbs?" Ding Xirui stepped forward to greet him, his face full of questions.

Lin Mingxuan smiled and said, "Let me drink some water first."

"Oh~"

Ding Xirui was embarrassed and quickly turned around to pour him a glass of water. Lin Mingxuan sat down, drank the water, and slowly spoke:

"Lord Li already knows about it. He sent two people to assist us, but the doctor at Huimin Medical Bureau is old and can't go out. We are still unsure about the medicinal materials. I wrote a prescription and asked them to prepare it. We will know the situation later."

"That's good." Ding Xirui breathed a sigh of relief.

"I asked Yumo to buy some fresh vegetables and fruits. When we leave, we can tell the butcher the time for the meat to be delivered."

"Buy these...are you going to take them to Xiaoshi Village?"

"Yes, we need to eat a variety of foods to recover. The village may not have them, or they may not be sufficient, so we need to bring more."

"You have thought it through. Let's set off early tomorrow morning." Lin Mingxuan nodded. "By the way, Lord Li gave us five taels of silver." He took out a purse from his sleeve and handed it to Ding Xirui.

"Okay, that's enough to buy vegetables and meat."

Xiaoshi Village is far from the road and difficult to travel. I heard from Mrs. Yi and Azhu that some people have lived in the village almost all their lives and have never been out. The food they eat must be very monotonous. If the land is lacking in selenium, it will cause Keshan disease. In addition to taking medicine to save their lives, they must eat rich food from outside to make up for what they are missing.

"Yumo will go with us tomorrow. Oh, and so will Brother Yuan." Ding Xirui pointed to the backyard.

"Go together? That's great." Lin Mingxuan felt relieved. "There were a lot of things to do today, and I didn't have time to say hello to Brother Yuan in the morning." Lin Mingxuan opened the curtain and came to the backyard.

Yuan Sansheng was helping to load some cabbages onto the carriage. His movements were slow, but his breathing was even and orderly.

"Brother Yuan!" He walked over.

"Mingxuan, you're back." Yuan Sansheng smiled, "I plan to go with you guys tomorrow. You won't think I'm a burden, will you?"

"How could that be? But I need to feel your pulse first."

"Hahahahaha."

The two chatted as they worked, loading more than a dozen cabbages onto the wagon. Tiger and Leopard tied them up with ropes, and moved a few baskets of oranges to the side, on top of which they piled pumpkins and carrots.

"Yumo, have you bought garlic?" Ding Xirui asked.

"I bought it. The boss said it will be delivered to us in a while."

"it is good."
